2020 has ushered Smart Cities and Communities worldwide into unchartered waters. Revolutionary or evolutionary, 2020 undisputedly deserves a proper postmortem and re-envisioning of the future.
As the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) works on a Smart Cities and Communities Framework, register to find out how you can contribute along with foremost thought leaders and doers in governments, industry, small businesses, academia and nonprofits.
The event is fast-paced. You’ll learn the pressing needs of our time, engage in big picture and strategy re-thinking for a Smart Future, and discuss execution successes and resources, and even shape a Declaration, our collaborative Call-To-Action via:
-
keynotes and open forums
-
use cases (what’s worked in governments, SMBs & partnerships)
-
job fair
-
birds-of-a-feather
-
solutions expo and training
-
a cybersecurity Catch-the-Flag
